DevKinsta - Design, develop, and deploy WordPress sites locally

@kotapeter Thank you so much Peter I'm super excited! I think the built-in SMTP server for analysing and debugging outgoing emails will be a beloved feature.

@kotapeter @tomzur And managing databases with Adminer in the backend. It's so much better than with phpMyAdmin.

@kotapeter I think its neat to have database, etc on the same platform. Looks sleek! All the best

@kotapeter SuperCaliFragilisticExpialidocious! 🎉

Hey Lee 👋 DevKinsta is a bit different than Local. DevKinsta runs based on Docker (Docker app and not VirtualBox + DockerMachine). We belive that this approach will be more scalable and extendable in the future. And we integrated inbox into the app. So you don't need to setup manually Mailhog. 🤓

Hey Peter, Myself and the Local team are excited for some friendly competition! I think this is a win for the greater WP community. 😃 It's worth noting that Local does not rely on VirtualBox/Docker and has been entirely native since early 2020. After Local reached scale, we saw in our analytics and in general feedback from users that virtualization (and Docker) caused a lot of frustration during onboarding. Additionally, performance with virtualization/Docker was never on par with native processes, no matter how many clever solutions you threw at it. If you're curious for more backstory on why we went this route, I have a tweestorm here: https://twitter.com/claygriffith...

Hey Clay 👋 😃 I'm happy to see your comment! Thank you for sharing your experience. 🙏 At the beginning of the development process we had a lot of discussion about Docker vs. Native and finally we chose Docker because we'll be able to maintain and extend Docker images easier in long term. 🤞 We also see what you said on your Twitter and hard to argue with these virtualization stuff. We hope WSL2 will be a core feature of Windows and use Docker on windows will be less painful. Our first approach was VirtualBox+DockerMachine (what Local used before 2020) and we've seen VirtualBox as a bottleneck. With Docker Desktop app we were able to achieve better performance, stability. It won't be easy for us to achieve what you've already done. Local team has created an awesome app and I'm really happy we have a competition like your software! Thank you again Clay for checking DevKinsta! It means a lot 🙏

Hey @pavelkozlov 👋 Thanks for your question :) sure you can! Just click on "Push to staging" button, select the environment and push it. It'll update your staging environment on Kinsta. You can also do this in the opposite way. But in this case you need to create a new site in DevKinsta and you need to choose "Import from Kinsta" option. We'll also improve this feature soon. :)
